The point is the word was not taught as a vocabulary word. The meaning was not taught in class. He is not expected to read words for his grade level greater than 5 letters currently. So if you teach kid "6 minus 4 is 2" or "take 4 away from 6 and you have 2" or "what number do you take from 4 to get 2?" why put subtrahend on the test?


I had lots of words on tests that weren't also vocab words for me. Strange.
